Block Out level guide
Block Out Level 331 Walkthrough
Level 331 starts with edge counters 15, 6, 11, 21, and 23 plus a central 40 blocker. The edges reach 11, 2, 7, 17, and 19 while the center still reads 33, so continue clearing the upper neck until the central blocker disappears before transferring the lower bars.

How to Solve Block Out Level 331 — Full Solution
- Send the top yellow 2x2 square through the yellow gate, followed by the exposed yellow square beneath it.
- Continue through the upper neck until the five edge counters reach the visible 11, 2, 7, 17, and 19 intermediate state; at the 2:08 timer snapshot, the central blocker is still present at 33.
- Keep removing exposed upper-neck pieces until the central numbered blocker disappears and the middle transfer space opens.
- Use the exposed middle-left purple gate for the left purple 2x2, then remove the adjacent purple vertical piece.
- Lift the dark-blue vertical block through the neck and clear the remaining upper purple pieces.
- Remove the long green bar from the top of the left stack, followed by the long blue bar below it.
- Clear the hollow red block on the right before moving the long blue bar beneath it.
- Remove the left green, red, cyan, and floor-red bars in exposed order while the shared row stays empty.
- Send the right long red bar out, then clear the hollow green block and the cyan bar below it.
- Finish the two remaining blue pieces through the right and bottom gates.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Yellow, Cyan, Blue, Green, Red
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Treating 11, 2, 7, 17, and 19 as the opening counters and omitting the central 40 blocker.
- Parking a hollow red or green block across the shared row before the opposite stack is clear.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 331 (quick clues)
- Do not copy the 11/2/7/17/19 screenshot as the opening or as an open center; the central blocker still reads 33 there.
- Move each hollow block completely out of the shared row before advancing the opposite lower stack.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- T-shaped board with a five-column neck above two lower stacks. True opening edge counters are 15 upper-left, 6 middle-left, 11 lower-left, 21 right, and 23 bottom; a yellow 2x2 central blocker starts at 40. Yellow squares, purple blocks, and one dark-blue vertical piece fill the neck; long green, blue, cyan, and red bars plus hollow red and green blocks fill the lower chamber.
- Goal
- Use the yellow top sequence to start reducing the five edge counters and central 40 blocker, continue the exposed upper-neck departures until the center disappears, then route both lower stacks through the opened shared row.
- Opening
- Send the exposed yellow 2x2 squares upward. At about nine seconds, with the timer at 2:08, the edge counters show the intermediate 11, 2, 7, 17, and 19 state while the central blocker remains at 33; continue the upper-neck sequence before attempting a transfer.
- Danger Zone
- The central blocker and purple column divide the board. Parking the hollow red or hollow green block across the shared row before they clear traps the long blue and red bars on opposite sides.
- Mechanics
- The five edge counters and central 40 blocker count down on different timelines. Reaching the 11/2/7/17/19 edge snapshot does not clear the center; later upper-neck departures remove the numbered blocker and expose the vertical transfer lane.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the real opening counter values?
They are 15, 6, 11, 21, and 23, with a separate central 40 blocker. The often-visible 11, 2, 7, 17, and 19 values occur later, when the center is still blocked at 33.
What blocks the two lower stacks from crossing?
The numbered center and purple column divide them at first; later, either hollow horizontal block can recreate the same deadlock if left in the shared row.
